Vox StompLab IIG Modeling Guitar Pedal

The StompLab IIG modeling guitar pedal is part of the Vox StompLab series -- a line of impressive effects pedals that pack powerful sounds into compact and sophisticated-looking metal bodies. Sound variations are categorized by style, such as rock, blues, and ballad, making it easy for even novice users to recall the desired sound. With high-quality looks, plus its high quality sound, the StompLab series will be a great companion for the guitarist or bassist for years to come.

First Check Out the Sounds

Multi-effects units contain an incredibly diverse array of sounds that range from distorted to clean, and the sheer number of these sounds can be staggering. Although having a large number of sounds is a great advantage, it can also overwhelm the novice user, causing difficulty or confusion. The StompLab series is designed to be easily usable, even by novice players -- since each program is named with a musical style, such as rock, blues, or metal. You'll be able to find the perfect sound without being concerned with specific effect names. The musical styles are categorized into ten types, and cover everything from straight-ahead traditional styles to quirky, unusual sounds. There are ten variations for each category, so you're sure to find sounds you like.

Create Your Own Original Sounds

Simply playing the preset sounds is a lot of fun, but you'll definitely want to create some of your own original sounds as well. The StompLab IIG has 100 preset effects categorized as pedal, amp, drive, cabinet, modulation, delay, and reverb effects. When noise reduction is included, you can use up to eight of them simultaneously. Each effect type provides multiple parameters that you can deeply edit to create your perfect sound. Since the sound engine is equivalent to those featured on the worldwide best-selling VT+ series of modeling amps and the ToneLab series of multi-effect units, you need no further guarantee of quality. Sounds you create can be saved as 20 user programs.

It Looks Great

The StompLab series was designed with great care, not only for its sounds, but also for its superb aesthetic. You'll never get tired of the cool metallic exterior. The pedal design is reminiscent of the vintage VOX wah pedals, which is sure to boost inspiration. One of the attractions of the StompLab series is the high-quality appearance, which is unheard of among other compact multi-effect units. It sounds excellent, it looks great and it's compact enough to fit into a gig bag, so you can take it along with you anywhere your music takes you, quickly and easily.

Expression Pedal for Realtime Control

The StompLab IIG is equipped with an expression pedal that can be used to control wah and volume, and also the parameters of each effect. You'll be free to create unique original sounds that you've never heard before.

Intuitive Functions and Features

The StompLab series has a built-in chromatic tuner, so you won't need to provide one separately. The three-LED indicator makes tuning easy. For convenience on stage, there's a mute function that lets you tune without being heard by others. Headphones can also be connected, so you'll be able to play at home late into the night without disturbing anyone. Battery operation makes these units easily portable, letting you enjoy serious sound from your guitar or bass wherever you go.

"Nice little modelling box"

Overall:
Bought this after trying a Boss FDR-1 pedal. The FDR-1 sounded OK, not great but was plagued with digital artifacts in the reverb module which made it unusable.
For less money, the StompLab IIG does a lot more and is quite a bit better sounding. While no digital or solid state box is going to sound like a good valve amp, the Vox does a fine job, particularly when manually configured.
I could do without most of the programs which come with the unit, but setting up some custom programs yielded some fine tones with minimal artifacts. The user interface is rudimentary, but once one is acclimated, it's fairly easy build tones.
I bought this to play along with instructional videos on the computer, and it works well for that. I haven't put it through my amp (Tech21 PowerEngine 60) yet, but it sounds fine coming through my stereo. It's compact and versatile. I have a desktop Tone Lab (which drives the Tech21) and a DA5 amp as well, so maybe I'm just accustomed to Vox modelling, but it sounds especially good considering the cost.

Thank you. Your vote has been counted. Could you briefly tell us why the review was or was not helpful?

"Lot's 'o stuff in here !"

Overall:
Let's get the negatives out of the way. There should be a battery door instead of having to remove the bottom plate. You should be able to run just effects like reverb, chorus, etc while bypassing all amp modeling, cabs etc. I'm having to run a simulation of a Vox AC4 through my Vox AC4. Huh? That said, a decent stand alone reverb or chorus pedal can be more expensive than all of this great stuff. The ratio of useable programs to ridiculous programs is about 9 good to 1 useless, in my experience that's pretty high. Programming is not hard but does require some attention and thought. So far I have programmed two personal creations, and feel confident that now I can do others easily and fairly quickly. The unit seems to be very well made and sturdy. The pedal of course is not full sized but can be used with the ball of your foot. Overall I consider it to be money well spent.
